Or in some people's cases, many gigabytes. I've seen a few people
thus far agree with me that the penalty is much less than trivial,
as your statement implies.

Indeed :)

I think the only difficultly-portable solution thus far proposed was
the one where you are in some kind of subversion shell that recognises
when you try to change a file and then makes a copy. Well that and
the hard links option which would be great, but is, alas, non-portable.
